ABOUT ME

I'm an Australian drummer based in Berlin.

Available for live, studio and session work.

Tracking drums and sound engineering at Lumen Studio Berlin.

Teaching private lessons on request.

I play vintage and modern styles and sounds with a focus on feel, musicality, dynamics and tonal choices.

​

I perform and record with acoustic, electronic and hybrid setups.

​

I have around 20 years of experience performing in settings ranging from jazz (early and modern), soul, RnB, hip hop, folk, indie, singer-songwriter, reggae, orchestras, and world music including various Brazilian, Cuban, North African and Middle Eastern styles.

REMOTE DRUM SESSIONS BY AIDAN LOWE

Lumen Studio was built to allow producers and artists to have live drums recorded on tracks, without the expense and time associated with traditional studio hire, setup and equipment transport.

​

I'm able to offer flexibility and a fast workflow/turnaround, creating more opportunities to have a living breathing musician on songs instead of programmed or looped samples. I create completely unique, original sounds and parts tailored to each track after discussions with the artist/producer.

HOW IT WORKS

1.

Send me a bounce of your track

2. Communication

We'll discuss your vision for the track and my ideas, either online or in person in my studio in Neukölln.

3.

Tracking

I'll track my drums in my studio, and send you back the raw files (8-10 channels) for you to import into your session.

EYAL LOVETT TRIO

Israeli born Eyal Lovett is one of the most prominent jazz pianists and band leaders currently active in Berlin.  "There are so many treasures here – and these eighty-four minutes have, over a period of time, repeatedly called me back to focus on their intricacies and their sincerity. At the moment, I wouldn’t stray far without this very special collection" - Adrian Pallant

FAR EAST TRIO

The Far East Trio is Declan Forde, Sidney Werner and Aidan Lowe: three close friends from across the globe uniting to bring early jazz into a contemporary context.

ANTIPODES

Antipodes formed in Berlin in early 2013 as an outlet for the original music of Luke Sweeting (piano) and Jake Baxendale, joined by Aidan Lowe (drums). The group focuses on an interactive approach to the music, the strong melodies tying together long, open improvisations. Described as “a northern European aesthetic with an authentic Australasian feel”, the sounds are drawn from a mixture of contemporary jazz, pop and folk, improvised music and their collective experiences of life as musicians on the far side of the globe.
